ALICE IN CHAINS Interviewed By Norway's 'Lydverket'; Video Available

Kristin Winsents of the Norwegian broadcaster NRK's weekly pop music show "Lydverket" recently travelled to Seattle to interview ALICE IN CHAINS, NIRVANA "Bleach" producer Jack Endino and GRAND ARCHIVES, among others, for a feature story on the grunge scene (looking back on its rise in the early '90s as well as examining why PEARL JAM and ALICE IN CHAINS are experiencing a huge resurgence in popularity in 2009). Her unedited chat with ALICE IN CHAINS can now be viewed below.

As previously reported, "Project Runway" season three model Amanda Fields is featured in the new video from ALICE IN CHAINS, "Your Decision", which was recently filmed in a "giant house between Santa Monica and Malibu off the Pacific Coast Highway." The clip is being directed by Stephen Schuster, who previously worked with ALICE IN CHAINS on the "A Looking In View" video.

To coincide with the band's European tour, ALICE IN CHAINS will release the "Your Decision" single on November 16 in the U.K.

"Your Decision" is the second single to be lifted from band's first all-new album in 14 years, titled "Black Gives Way To Blue", which sold 126,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to land at position No. 5 on The Billboard 200 chart (behind latest albums from PARAMORE, MARIAH CAREY, BARBRA STREISAND and BREAKING BENJAMIN).

ALICE IN CHAINS recruited pop legend Elton John to contribute piano to the CD's title track, which is written in tribute to Staley.

Singer William DuVall had played with his own group, COMES WITH THE FALL, as well as in Jerry Cantrell's solo band, before joining up with ALICE IN CHAINS in 2006.

"Black Gives Way to Blue" was recorded with producer Nick Raskulinecz (FOO FIGHTERS, RUSH) at the Northridge, California studio of FOO FIGHTERS frontman Dave Grohl.
